1st International Workshop on Humans in Cyber-Physical Systems, Safe Teleoperation through Shared Control (HCPS-STSC)
Organized in conjunction with CPS-IoT Week
May 9, 2023
University of Texas at San Antonio

Call for Papers:
Teleoperation through shared control is a common paradigm wherein human operators perform safety-critical tasks through the mediation of networked and highly distributed autonomous systems. Key examples include surgical robots, teleoperated drones, teleoperation of industrial robots, and control of large, distributed power plants. These scenarios share many commonalities: (a) human operators cooperate with autonomous control systems to achieve a safety-critical task; (b) safety violations can lead to expensive consequences that include loss of life and destruction of property; (c) human operators are required to undergo an expensive process of training and certification that enables them to fulfill the role effectively; and (d) during operation, failures may arise not just from design errors in the automation but also in the flawed design of the interaction between the human and the automation.
A unique focus of this workshop is to provide a forum not just for established researchers but also for Ph.D. students and post-doctoral scholars whose research addresses some of the relevant themes mentioned above.
Topics of Interest:
- Human-robot interactions
- Control theory in teleoperating systems
- Formal methods and safety, reliability, and dependability of teleoperating systems and human-robot interactions
- Psychology/cognitive science in teleoperating systems
- Human training
- Future of human CPS
Important dates:
- Submission Deadline: February 20, 2023 (AOE)
- Notification of Acceptance: March 1, 2023
- Camera Ready: March 10, 2023
Submissions:
We encourage 2-page abstract submissions that present work in progress as well as conceptual discussions that have the potential to contribute greatly to the themes of the workshop. Please follow the instructions on the workshop website (https://sites.google.com/view/humans-in-cphs-workshop/home) to format and submit the abstract. All submitted abstracts will be peer-reviewed for relevance by at least two members of the organizing committee.
